Can you recommend a good building company and handyman?

Hi, I know that plenty of people have already recommended here some building companies / handymen services but I would appreciate if you could help me :)


We have just moved in to the new semi-detached house in East Dulwich. There are plenty of small things around the house to fix / walls to be repainted etc which we want to complete before Christmas (I know, not much time left!) and for the next year (starting in February) we want to invest in Loft Conversion and possibly Basement Conversion (depending on the costs). Do you know any builders / companies worth contacting? I would rather a small, local company which takes care of their clients.


Thank you for your help!

Hi, I would highly recommend Charlie O'Brien. He has lived in the local area all his life and currently him and his dad ( family business ) work all around the South east London area ( they are based in Nunhead ). He is really reliable, and a hard worker, they are able to do both small jobs and larger projects ( like loft conversions and complete refurbs). I don't know what his schedule is at the moment but I would suggest just giving him a call. His number is 07875442992 and if you wanted to see some of his work he has recently opened a Facebook page under Charlie O'Brien Cpob

Hi I can highly recommend Eddie, for any handyman jobs, he takes care of the maintenance on my rented properties. Eddie can do everything from painting and decorating, Plastering, tiling, and most minor plumbing jobs.

Hi AnnaD88


I would like to recommend a good plumber if that is of any use to you. He works all over the Dulwich area,(and beyond) and we have used him a lot over the years, and he has never let us down.

His name is Rick Foster and his number is : 07860633220

Hi Anna, I would recommend Lifestyle Design and Build for all services. They are a building company but they also offer handyman services, therefore, they would be a perfect choice for you. After they completed a loft conversion in my house, I have hired them a couple of times for random small jobs and I have always been pleased with the quality of their work. They are not a huge company, that's why they really care about their clients! Visit their website: www.lifestylebyasq.co.uk or call them 02077203082.


Regards,

Claire :)

    • To defend the new incarnation of the Dartmouth Arms for a moment - it's not really a pub any more, it's a burger restaurant and is pretty decent at that.  It was pretty crap when it was a pub.
    • There are some bins in the park specifically for dog poo with lids you have to lift. I never use them because the idea of touching the lids makes me want to hurl. 
    • There surely must be a way to make the bins foxproof whilst still allowing for bags to be put into them. Some kind of latch which couldn't be opened by fox paws? I suppose they would just get vandalised 🙄
    • I stopped going to the EDT when I was meeting a friend there one afternoon last year. The place was empty except for me, and the bar staff suddenly put on awful music,  really loudly. When I politely asked them to turn it down a bit, they turned it up. I took my pint outside, and when my friend arrived we went to the Palmerston instead. Haven't been back there since. Well, can't now anyway 🤣 When I said it was iconic, the emphasis was on the "was". It was once genuinely quirky, before they started messing about with it. It was different from the other ED pubs at the time, which were - without any exception I can think of except maybe the Castle  - awful. The Castle later went through a sticky patch when they kicked out the lovely manager who had been there for years and brought in someone who wasn't exactly welcoming. We put some stuff on the juke box, which after a couple of tracks was turned off from the bar (with our money in it) and the worst kind (my opinion only, obviously) of sentimental Irish music put on instead, at full volume. How to win friends and ensure your customers come back 🤣 Luckily the manager changed again, and all the staff there now are lovely ❤️ I really hope the Castle doesn't get gentrified (or the Blythe, but that's not in East Dulwich,  so less at risk, I would have thought?)
